The French team controlled the game superiorly but played quite subjectively, allowing their Greek opponent to almost successfully come back, in the final match of the Euro 2024 qualifying round taking place in the early morning of November 22 (Vietnam time). .

Result: Greece 2-2 France

Scored:

Greece: Anastasios Bakasetas (56′) Fotis Ioannidis (61′)

France: Randal Kolo Muani (42′): Youssouf Fofana (74′)

Because it was just a procedural match, the French team only fielded a secondary squad when they were guests of Greece in the final round of Euro 2024 qualifying. Coach Deschamps’ team played slowly and it took until the 42nd minute to open the scoring. Randal Kolo Muani’s close-range kick hit the roof of the net.

Entering the second half, when France played subjectively, it was an opportunity for Greece to speed up. In the 56th minute, captain Bakasetas caught the ball that bounced off the second line and fired a left shot to defeat Brice Samba. The score is equal 1-1 for Greece.

Just 5 minutes later, the Greek team suddenly took the lead with a neat shot in the penalty area by striker Fotis Ioannidis. Before that was a pass showing great vision from left back Dimitrios Giannoulis.

Having conceded 2 consecutive goals, coach Deschamps immediately reacted by sending Mbappe, Dembele, Thuram or Kingsley Coman onto the field. Pressure was immediately created when PSG’s superstar assisted midfielder Youssouf Fofana with a superb long-range shot to equalize 2-2 for France in the 74th minute.

This was also the final score of the match despite the late-game efforts of the French team. This draw caused the Gaulois Roosters to lose their winning streak in Euro 2024 qualifying.

In another match, the home team Romania fought bravely to win against Switzerland and take the top spot in Group I of Euro 2024 qualifying.

This result helps Romania finish the Euro 2024 qualifying round with first place in Group I with 22 points. Notably, they ended the qualifying campaign with an unbeaten record (6 wins, 4 draws). Something that not many people predicted before the qualifiers took place.

Meanwhile, Wales lost their direct spot in the Euro 2024 finals at the last minute due to a 1-1 draw with Türkiye. The two teams moving forward as first and second place in Group D of Euro 2024 qualifying are called Türkiye and Croatia respectively. However, Wales still has a chance to compete for tickets to Germany next year through the play-off round taking place in March with 11 other teams.
